Visual Inspection Services
Turn Routine Inspections Into a Reliability Advantage
Thorough Inspections That Capture Every Detail
Visual inspections provide immediate, actionable insights that extend reliability, protect your operations, and keep you in compliance. They're the foundation of every SDMyers diagnostic service.
What Our FITs Check For
Our FITs conduct thorough on-site inspections of both your site conditions and transformer equipment, looking for:
- Physical damage, leaks, and corrosion
- Gauge readings and liquid levels
- Wiring and external ground connectors
- Environmental and safety concerns
Also included in our field oil sampling service, visual inspections give you a more complete picture of your fleet's health when combined with data from other field inspection services.
4 Benefits of an Expert Inspection:
Get Immediate Health & Safety Indicators
Identify potential issues before they become costly failures or safety hazards.
Build a Complete Diagnostic Picture
Visual inspection data combined with oil test data on your Transformer Dashboard® enables more accurate diagnoses and better decision-making.
Address Safety Violations Proactively
Stay compliant with NFPA 70B and OSHA requirements while protecting your team and equipment.
Identify Repair & Replacement Opportunities
Catch damaged parts early and plan corrective actions on your schedule, not during an emergency.
